I was emailed the news that Live was finally out of beta, downloaded and installed it, didnt work - `connection problem`, reinstalled 7.5 which worked anyway and still does. And half the size.click here

Thanks I'll have a look at that thread - thing is from the beginning it says that it disconnects every few minutes, mine won't connect at all. Even when I did log it in that once, when I moved my mouse over the quick start Icon it said 'connection error'

I click sign in and it goes 'signing in'. When I look at the connection settings it says 'You are directly connected to .NET messenger service' which I can clearly see I'm not. There also appears to be an Exclamation mark between the image of a comuter and what I assume is a modem?

Right - I tried repairing it (again) and this time it has logged in. However it says when you put your mouse over the symbol in the quicksart that says you're online - it says "connection error" not sure whether it's working or not as according to it, none of my contacts are online. :?
